You don't say how you're determining this so I'm guessing that you're reading
the 'glevel 2' from 'odump -F'. If you look in /usr/include/symconst.h
you'll see that GLEVEL_0 is #defined as 2. I just looked at Ultrix
Worksystem V2.0 (Rev. 7) and everything but /lib/libfe.a /lib/libu.a
and some parts of /lib/libU77.a were compiled -g0.
